Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus, generally known as Frankenstein, is a novel written by the British author Mary Shelley. The title of the novel refers to a scientist, Victor Frankenstein, who learns how to create life and creates a being in the likeness of man, but larger than average and more powerful. In popular culture, people have tended to refer to the Creature as "Frankenstein", despite this being the name of the scientist. Frankenstein is a novel infused with some elements of the Gothic novel and the Romantic movement. It was also a warning against the "over-reaching" of modern man and the Industrial Revolution, alluded to in the novel's subtitle, The Modern Prometheus. The story has had an influence across literature and popular culture and spawned a complete genre of horror stories and films. It is arguably considered the first fully realized science fiction novel.

Mary Shelley comecou a escrever Frankenstein quando tinha apenas dezoito anos. Simultaneamente um thriller gotico, um romance apaixonado e um conto de advertencia sobre os perigos da ciencia, Frankenstein conta a historia do estudante de ciencias Victor Frankenstein. Obcecado em descobrir a origem da vida e conseguindo animar materia inerte, Frankenstein monta um ser humano a partir de partes do corpo roubadas; porem, ao traze-lo a vida, recua horrorizado ante a fealdade da criatura. Atormentada pelo isolamento e pela solidão, a criatura outrora inocente vira-se para o mal e desencadeia uma campanha de vinganca assassina contra o seu criador, Frankenstein. Frankenstein, um best- seller instantaneo e um antepassado importante do terror e da ficc?o cientifica, néo so conta uma historia aterrorizante, como tambem suscita perguntas profundas e perturbadoras sobre a propria natureza da vida e o lugar da humanidade no cosmos: o que significa ser humano? Quais são as responsabilidades que temos uns com os outros? Ate onde podemos ir na manipulac?o da Natureza? Na nossa epoca, cheia de noticias sobre a engenharia genetica, doac?o de org?os e bioterrorismo, estas questões são mais relevantes do que nunca.
